Hello,
I suspect it comes from this section in the spec file,
Cheers Glenn

Requires(post): module-init-tools >= 3.4
# This Requires is wrong, because the post/postun scripts have a

requirement.
# But, there is no way to tell rpm or yast to schedule the installation
# of perl-Bootloader before kernel-binary.rpm if both are in the list of
# packages to install/update. Likewise, this is true for mkinitrd.
# Need a perl-Bootloader with /usr/lib/bootloader/bootloader_entry
Requires(post): perl-Bootloader >= 0.4.15
Requires(post): mkinitrd >= 2.7.1
